1997 Fiat Marea HLX review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It has a couple of bizarre sqeaks and rattles from the interior. All Fiat sunroofs seem to rattle!
Smell of petrol when windows or sunroof open.
General comments?
Bought this car when 18 months old and with 11,000 miles on it at less than half the price of a new one (£7500). It has a 150BHP, 5 cylinder engine which is fantastic and for the money the car is unbeatable secondhand. Better hope it doesn't go wrong too often though, as Fiat dealers are the most inept on the planet in my experience.
